Hi, I contact you as i have difficulties to use nwfilter with KVM host. I want to implemente flow filtering between my Linux guests. I created the following filter : cat admin-dmz-internet.xml <filter name='admin-dmz-internet'> <!-- this zone is an SSH ingoing only zone --> <!-- but SSH can go to an other SSH proxy --> <filterref

Hi, Over the past few days I've been trying to get a prototype working of a stateful firewall for a Virtual Machine using Libvirt's network filters. My goal is to replace the current custom Python/Java code in the Apache CloudStack [0] project by Network Filters of Libvirt. Both IPv4 and IPv6 should work, but I started off with IPv4 and I have issues with accepting back

Hi, I'm trying to configure nwfilter for KVM, but so far I haven't managed to figure out a working configuration. Network setup: The dom0 (Debian 7.1, kernel 3.2.46-1, libvirt 0.9.12) is connected via eth0, part of the external subnet 192.168.17.0/24, and has an additional subnet 192.168.128.160/28 routed to its main address 192.168.17.125. The host's subnet is configured as bridge

I just wrote this to assist some Red Hat folks understanding what libvirt does with iptables, and thought it is useful info for the whole libvirt community. When I have time I'll adjust this content so that it can fit into the website in relevant pages/places. Firewall / network filtering in libvirt ======================================= There are three pieces of libvirt

I've run into a problem on my KVM host where a single guest will be unreachable to other guests on the same host. This host has 2 bridged devices and guests assigned to each have the same issue. I've noticed that when I can't reach the problematic guest, the ARP entry for that system is incorrect. This issue seems to only be a problem about 75% of the time when making connections

Hi folks, I'm using libvirt 3.9.0 running under CentOS 7.5. I want the guests, which are all within the same subnet (e.g. 10.0.0.x.), only talk to their default gateway (e.g. 10.0.0.1) but to each other. This is caused by a design issue of our network platform. I set up a filter rule and attached it to the interface of a guest using nwfilter-define: <filter name='private_ip'

I would stop the VM, edit its definition file (that's an XML file) and then start it up. But be careful: After you edit the XML file, you need to execute a command so KVM re-reads that file. I forgot that command, but you can look it up on Google. On Dec 9, 2015 7:52 AM, "Howard Leadmon" <howard at leadmon.net> wrote: > > > Maybe my google-fu is failing me, but I have

Hi, I'm not sure but I think I suffer under the same problem with a bit different setup with squeeze testing and xen 4.0rc5. In fact I'm using bridges in the dom0 and the connections to the domU get lost sporadically. In don't see where's a solution to the problem... Is it now a bug? When it's an iptables bug, where's the corresponding bug in the iptables bugtracker

Maybe my google-fu is failing me, but I have spent the past couple hours looking at how to add a vnet? Device to my KVM host running CentOS 6, and for the life of me I can't get this going. >From all my research if I want to add a device I should just do 'brctl addif br1 vnet14' if I want to add a vnet14 to bridge br1. When I do this, I get: # brctl addif br0 vnet14

Hi, I am trying to prevent my qemu guest machines from sending IPv6 router advertisements over their network device. To that end, I have written this filter definition: <filter name='no-ipv6-router-advertisement' chain='root' priority='-690'> <rule action='drop' direction='out' priority='600'> <icmpv6 type='134'/>

You most definitely do not need to destroy and re-create a VM just to add a 2nd network interface. I don't think those vnet interfaces got created by the host OS. I believe those are created by KVM (or libvirt) when you start a VM. I could be wrong though. But I just checked on my CentOS 6 KVM host machine and I see as many vnet interfaces as many VMs are currently running (or if one VM

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi list, I searched the web for bug reports regarding this phenomenon I see on *multiple* machines of a customer, however, I didn't find an exact fit. So, I'd like to ask here whether anyone else has run into this. I have multiple CentOS 6 machines running using KVM to virtualize a bunch of machines on them (LVM-based). Software releases

Hi everybody I've a very big network problem with some server running CentOS with KVM and some linux-like VMs on the top of it. The vm's network is bridged with a physical dedicate NIC (an Intel PRO/1000) with 2.4.14-NAPI driver (but the problem persists with various versions of the driver) and the CentOS version is 6.4 (same problem with a 5.7 sever) with all the last updates.

Greetings, I'm attempting to get several virtual machines setup on a Fedora19 host system, with the traditional bridge network devices (br0, br1, etc). I've done this many times before with older versions of Fedora (16, 14, etc), and it just works. However, for reasons that I cannot figure out, the bridge doesn't seem to be working in Fedora19. While I can successfully connect to

BTW, adding a 2nd virtual nic to a guest can also be done with command line tools (I just googled this for you) : https://kashyapc.fedorapeople.org/virt/add-network-card-in-guest.txt ( It came up as 1st result when I searched for: virsh add network interface to existing guest ) But if you look at the bottom of this guide, they also mention that if something goes wrong, they resort to using

Tried that as well, but this has to be something that gets set at the OS level and loaded, as if you look at dmesg output, you can see all the vnet?? nodes as the OS comes online. So the question is, what is virt-install doing that creates the needed vnet interface that is part of the bridge. I really had to kill and reload the VM just to load a second interface.. --- Howard Leadmon

Let's say I have some iptables rules defined to restrict guest traffic. If I restart the hosts firewall 'service iptables restart', all the guest-specific rules get blown away. Is there a way to reapply all the guest firewall rules, without restarting each individual guest? It looks like if I edit a nwfilter with `virsh nwfilter-edit` it goes and reapplies the rules to all the
